The TallMikeWine Podcast

Send us a text

Mike chats with Nicholson Ranch Chief Wine Scientist Jean-Claude Pijanowski. JC (as they call him at the winery) discusses his time in wine and his prior time working at NASA, including the time he met his hero Carl Sagan (and things got a little weird). The guys also taste two great wines from faraway lands, discuss the outlook for the 2020 and 2021 vintages, Mike introduces the Podcasts latest merchandise, and eventually the discussion turns to teleportation, time travel, the Billionaire Space Race and more! There is NO other wine podcast like it. Check out Mike's Instagram for some pictures of everything, and if you'd like to get your very own TallMikeWine Podcast coasters or stickers, drop a line to [email protected].
Wines tasted this episode:
2019 La Vigne du Roy, Tavel
2014 De Martino Carmenere, Maipo Valley, Chile "Alto de Piedras"

Listen until the very end for some "post show" content!
